Great Plains Sub-Soiler

Description

Break up compaction layers with the Great Plains Sub-Soiler, a true vertical tillage implement. This inline sub-soiler reaches depths up to 16 inches to reset your soil profile. Spring-loaded 20-inch coulters clear residue ahead of chrome-alloy shanks and points. Choose the VT1500 or VT1510 and pick auto-reset or shear-bolt shank protection.

Features

Shank & Point Options

Choice of Auto-Reset or Shear Bolt Shank Mounts
Auto-Reset Shanks trip at 3,000 pounds to keep working through buried rock and debris. Shear Bolt Mounts protect shanks at a lower cost than the Auto-Reset option. An optional 2,000-lb. trip pack shank cuts shear-bolt breakage in rocky fields.

Choose Your Shank Style
Pick a 1 1/4-inch straight-leg shank or a 3/4-inch no-till shank to match your ground. The no-till shank disturbs less soil and covers less residue than the straight-leg shank.

Choose Your Point Style
Straight-leg shanks run 2-inch or 7-inch points, with or without fins to control blowout. Notill shanks use a 10-inch point that limits surface disturbance and residue burial. A 4-inch no-till point suits 24-inch spacing and works at shallower depths with less horsepower.

Coulters & Depth Control

20″ Heavy-Duty Utility Coulters
Large 20-inch coulters slice residue ahead of each shank so trash clears the frame.

Adjustable Gauge Wheel
A screw jack makes gauge wheel height quick and easy to adjust.

Shank Spacing Options
Shank spacing options from 24 to 40 inches let you match the tool to your soil.

Optional Attachments

Inline Hitch
The optional inline hitch converts a 7-shank or smaller unit into a pull-type implement.

Berm Conditioners
Optional berm conditioners firm the soil surface after the shanks reset density layers.

Sub-Soiler Hitch
The optional sub-soiler hitch turns any 3-point sub-soiler into a pull-type implement.
